Further south, the landscape changes, with Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre forming the backbone of generous, warming reds from regions including Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas and Côtes du Rhône.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"dauvergne-ranvier-costieres-de-nime","title":"Dauvergne Ranvier Costieres de Nimes","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis wine from Dauvergne Ranvier captivates with a lovely floral note and the enticing aroma of purple fruits, concluding with a subtle minerality on the nose.
